Chapter 246: Liu Shou broke into the Qingluan Courtyard
When he got up, Liu Piaoyi always felt that his backache was weak, and he didn't even have the strength to stare at Jian Xiu.
After a simple grooming, Chunlin waited for Liu Piao to pull her hair, and Jian Xiu actually stood aside and looked at her.
Her hair was extremely long, black as a handful of fine ink satin. When held in the hand, there is a faint flow of shimmering luster. Chunlin admired the young lady for having such black and soft hair.
There was a faint sound of firecrackers outside the Qingluan Courtyard, and the people were still immersed in the joy of the New Year, even if it was the third day of the Lunar New Year, the joy was still overflowing.
The New Year was supposed to reunite with the family and return home, but Liu Piaoyi still didn't go back to the Prime Minister's Mansion and didn't go to see the elders. Jian Xiu didn't say much, but still accompanied her to live a leisurely life in the Qingluan Courtyard.
Everything may have been put on hold because of the New Year, including the Imperial Palace.
The affairs of the government and government were not mentioned again in this New Year, and the emperor and queen mother were also busy with the sacrificial activities of this New Year, and no longer had time to pay attention to anything else.
The matter of Jian Xiu was not mentioned by the imperial court for the time being, and Liu Shou, the Jinyi guard, was not in a hurry to investigate again. But because Jian Xiu was granted cultivation by the emperor, he did not have his responsibility when the royal family sacrificed heaven and earth. Everything is Liu Shou, busy running by the emperor's side.
For Jian Xiu, everything in the palace seems to have nothing to do with him. And that's what the emperor meant.
Jian Xiu's New Year's Moon was so quiet that the imperial court, the Jinyi Guard, and the Governor Fu Si seemed to be abandoned. In Qingluan's courtyard, he guarded Liu Piao's memories and lived a married life.
Until the tenth day of the first lunar month, Qingluan Villa was no longer peaceful.
On this day, the sun is shining, it is a warm day that has not been seen for a long time after the New Year, In the garden of Qingluan Villa, there is a reclining chair, Liu Piaomei leans on the chaise longue, closes his eyes and listens to the melodious bird cry, as well as all kinds of strange insect songs.
It's just that such a good mood was suddenly interrupted by her emotions. Liu Piaoyi heard the noisy voices outside, and the sound of the Ming steward with some angry shouts, and her beautiful cherry eyes opened slightly, frowning deeply.
Standing up in confusion, stepping on the exquisitely embroidered shoes, Liu Piaoyao walked towards the outer courtyard with a memory.
In the outer courtyard, several Jinyi guards were dressed in formal clothes and swords at their waists, and they were breaking in, and the leader was Liu Shou, the same acquaintance of Jinyi Guard. The steward followed behind them and tried his best to stop them, but he didn't dare to stop them.
As soon as Liu Shougang raised his eyes, he saw a pair of cold eyes from the woman looking at him. Her eyes that were as black as ink and as soft as clear water looked at it, and Liu Shou couldn't help but warm up his face.
Seeing this, Liu Piao's phoenix eyes narrowed, and her beautiful but cold voice coldly came to those brocade guards, "What are you doing here?!" ”
Several brocade guards who came exchanged glances, hesitating who should come forward to explain their intentions, but Liu Shou was stunned for a moment.
can break into the other courtyard as the commander of the Jinyi Guard like this, maybe no other Jinyi Guards dare except Liu Shou during this period. Liu Shou is supporting the emperor, how can Liu Piaoyi not understand. can understand it, still pretending to be confused, his expression has not changed, and he sneered, "How scary is Lord Liu's formation!" ”
Liu Shou reluctantly regained his senses, swallowed his saliva, and said with a dry smile: "Madam, this is an official business, and I will find a suspicious White Lotus Sect disciple who has broken into this courtyard, and I must search it before I come in and disturb it." ”
White Lotus Cultists?! Liu Piao's eyes tightened, and he instantly thought of Xingruchen in his mind, he was a member of the White Lotus Sect, if someone from the White Lotus Sect really broke in from the Qingluan Courtyard, could it be him? Apart from him, Liu Piaoyi couldn't think of any other White Lotus Sect

people will come here.
Or maybe it's Su Qingshan?! If it was really these two people, would it be difficult for Liu Shou to discover his identity?!
Liu Piaoyi felt the uneasiness of her heart palpitations, and the hand in her sleeve tugged tightly to calm herself.
"Lord Liu can use his heart for the imperial court, so soon the White Lotus Sect can have eyebrows."
When Liu Piaoyi said the words White Lotus Sect, his tone was very heavy, as if it was full of warnings.
Liu Shou's face was gloomy.
At this time, Jian Xiu's cold voice came, "Why, Lord Liu is in such a formation that he wants to come to the official!" As soon as he spoke, the figure had already walked over, with a tall posture, a blue face, and sharp eyes staring at Liu Shouwen.
The team of brocade guards behind Liu Shou immediately lowered their heads, for fear of affecting them. Only the corners of Liu Shou's mouth twitched and smiled, and he bowed his hand, and he was a little melancholy for a while.
Jian Xiu's gaze swept over Liu Shou, and then stopped at Liu Piaoyi, completely ignoring Liu Shou's appearance, and didn't care about Liu Shou's intention to come.
Groaning, Liu Shouwei bowed his head and said, "The lower official is chasing a White Lotus cultist, and I saw him jump into the courtyard of the lord with my own eyes. ”
Liu Shou's thoughtful gaze swept over Jian Xiu's body, and it was clear that he had already pointed something.
Jian Xiu's eyes were very deep, and he slowly gathered a trace of darkness, and sneered, "Liu Tongzhi, the emperor has not removed the identity of the commander of the Jinyi Guard, why, one of your subordinates has no evidence to slander the official?!" ”
In front of Jian Xiu, Liu Shou still had the fear in his heart, but he had the emperor's support, so he had to be brave. There was a hint of sweat on his forehead, and his heart was restless, but he still had to do something.
Liu Shou arched his hand with a respectful look, "The commander is dedicated to the imperial court, and he doesn't want to tarnish your reputation because of the White Lotus Sect, right?" ”
This is to be searched, Jian Xiu and Liu Piaoyi are not stupid people who can't hear it.
A sneer appeared on Liu Piao's face, and she smiled very ethereally, like a dream, as if it didn't exist.
Jian Xiu said calmly and coldly, "Since Liu Tongzhi wants to search, then search it, but ......" the corner of the man's mouth sneered, "If you don't find such a person, Liu Tongzhi is afraid that he will give an explanation to the official, and I, Zhang Jianxiu, am not a fellow acquaintance of you who can give a face at will." ”
There are no people from the White Lotus Sect in Qingluan Courtyard, obviously Liu Shou wants to come and find some fault. Or maybe he wants to openly search in his courtyard, just to find a good name. And to make Liu Shou so bold, I am afraid that he has already obtained the emperor's permission.
Jian Xiu smiled inwardly as if he understood. The emperor really doesn't trust him like this because of Lei Hu's maid, and his ruffians don't trust him like this, and don't trust him, a loyal minister who has worked hard for the court for many years?!
Seeing that Jian Xiumo was in place and did not move, Liu Shou raised his hand and waved, and the team of brocade guards obeyed the order and went directly to the backyard.
Watching Liu Shou lead someone to search, Liu Piao's long eyelashes trembled slightly, and a dark shadow sank under her eyes.
On the roof of an attic in Qingluan's courtyard, Han Xiangqing, dressed in black, was lying on the tile, looking at the figures of Zhang Jianxiu and Liu Piaoyi in the courtyard from a distance.
There was a sudden sound of wind behind her, Han Xiangqing mentioned it, and suddenly a force behind her suddenly picked her up, and flew directly over the roof to a big tree outside the wall.
The man covered her mouth and pressed her head down, a faint smell of vanilla soaking into her nostrils
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
My heart settled down at once.
Han Xiangqing didn't say a word, and watched the vigilant and sensitive Xing Ruchen let go of her and jumped away. He should have heard the news of Jinyi Guard Liu Shou and came over at once.
But what was he doing when he jumped to the roof again?!
Aren't you afraid that Liu Shou and those brocade guards will find out? Aren't you afraid that Zhang Jianxiu, the commander of the Jinyi Guard, will find out?
Han Xiangqing was a little puzzled.
She came here just to take a look at Liu Piao's memory that she was too comfortable now, and what was the Lord coming forward.
Han Xiangqing didn't dare to move again, just stared at the figure of the person on the roof, but saw that Xingruchen didn't move much from beginning to end, and soon flew back.
Han Xiangqing wiped the sweat from nervousness on his forehead and asked him softly, "Lord, what's going on inside?" ”
Xingruchen glanced at her lightly, and said a little angrily, "What do you want to do, come here at this time." ”
"Lord, I ......" Han Xiangqing panicked and didn't know how to explain.
Xingruchen didn't care about her anymore and flew away, Han Xiangqing had to follow immediately and leap away from the big tree.
In the Qingluan Courtyard, Liu Shou didn't find anything, nor did he find anyone, so he only apologized to Jian Xiu and ran away with the team of brocade guards.
But although Liu Shouren left, because of this incident, Jian Xiu was depressed and obviously had a bad face.
After this incident, he believed that the emperor no longer trusted him, and perhaps wanted to move him.
After entering the room, Jian Xiu sat on the chair without any temper, did not show any attitude, and was silent. On the side, Liu Piaoyi silently looked at Jian Xiu's expression, and did not say much.
At night, Jian Xiu stayed in the study, and Liu Piaoyi didn't bother, thinking that it must be because today's events made him unhappy or worried about something.
What Jian Xiu thought, how could Liu Piaoyi not think of it. The emperor's deliberate intention was to make it difficult for Jian Xiu to accept it at the moment.
However, Liu Piaoyi didn't ask him more, and practiced calligraphy in the house.
Jian Xiu walked over, Liu Piaoyi actually knew, but she didn't look up until Jian Xiu said behind her, "Madame has the heart to practice calligraphy," Liu Piaoyi smiled, "Practicing calligraphy can cultivate one's self." ”
She needs to meditate.
Jian Xiu stroked her black hair scattered on her shoulders, and said gently, "Then you write, rest early, go to Li Ruzhang's mansion for your husband, and return soon." ”
"Okay." Liu Piaoyi responded to him indifferently.
Jian Xiu walked out of the door, she didn't look up, the pen in her hand didn't stop, and she felt tired after writing for nearly half an hour, so she went back to the house to rest.
Sitting on the edge of the bed, Liu Piaoyi felt that his eyes were a little tired, rubbed the corners of his eyes, and looked out the window.
In the dead of night, a few dim lanterns hung on the side of the road, fluttering in the wind to illuminate the main road.
She stared at the lantern for a moment, and suddenly saw a familiar figure slowly wandering under the lamp, its back lonely, slightly stained with dust and frost.
That back is - Yun Xiu.
How did he get here?
Liu Piaoyi put on his cloak and walked out the door, looking at the sky, his eyes dark at night. She took a deep breath and raised her lips to call out to the swaying figure, "Yun Xiu—"
